The IOC won’t test either of you for doping, but economists insist on checking you both for being dopey.
Since track events always run counter-clockwise, I wonder if the American people care that you two blokes are both facing the wrong direction.
“You both can run, but you can’t hide. By doing so you risk your pasts catching up to you.”

Money can’t buy you the result of this race!

Stop whining, Mitt. You knew his father was Kenyan when you entered this race.
“You can run to the White House but you can’t run from the truth.”

All the slots for mud wrestling and finger pointing were already filled, so try running a good race instead.
May you win, but if you cannot win, may you be brave in the attempt.
Try not to go too far to the left or right!
I guarantee the contestant who tries to lead from behind during this race will lose.

Gentlemen, the world record in this event is $760 million. Good luck!
“One final warning, the winner becomes the President.”
“One final warning, the winner has to be the President.”
About halfway you’ll find the track gets a little muddy. Try to avoid slinging it.

“Who ever wins becomes an honorable winner, and the loser becomes a respectable loser, then our Country becomes the real winner.”

Good luck getting over all the hurdles before you!
